Review of Ambition Suites
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Nov 12, 2018via mobile
My wife and I just spent 2 nights, 3 days in Santorini and stayed at Ambition Suites. I'll admit I was a bit skeptical going in with the beautiful photos and all 5 star reviews, could it really be that good? Well it is and then some. We arranged to have an airport pickup for our flight that got in at 7:45am. George was there waiting for us when we arrived. When we got to our hotel our room wasn't ready but Iveta welcomed us in, took our bags, and gave us drinks, all right around 9am. We were told our room would be ready around 10:30 so we went for a walk around the beautiful Oia. When we got back, Iveta brought us to our room and our jaws dropped. The private balcony with hot tub overlooking the caldera has got to be one of the world's most beautiful sights. Especially at sunset it's just stunning. Iveta brought us into the room and showed us all the little nifty things... the nespresso machine, the complimentary drinks in the fridge, how to fill out the breakfast menu, how to use the hot tub, etc. With the hotel only consisting of four suites, it's the perfect mix of personal service and privacy. The breakfast is another amazing feature. The night before you fill out the breakfast menu which has plenty of options and it's all set up on your balcony at your desired time. The hotel is also in a perfect location, right on the edge of Oia. There's lots of restaurants and shops right outside the hotel but it's not located in the narrow middle part of Oia which got really packed on days where cruise ships docked in Fira. The only warning I should give is there's a lot of stairs you need to go up and down to get from your room to street level, but if you're not good with stairs you might want to rethink going to Santorini in the first place. All in all this place is perfect from start to finish.

Ambition Suites is paradise, we could not recommend it highly enough. Iveta and the rest of the team were so friendly and helpful. The setting was unbelievable - so private, with the best views, lovely breakfast made to order each morning on the terrace, only a few minute walk into Oia but when you were in the room and your private balcony you felt like you were the only 2 people on earth. We were very sad to leave, Ambition Suites and Oia are very special places. We stayed in the Emotion suite which was v. nice. They also provide free airport transfers which was a nice saving. Compared to the most of the other accommodation in Santorini which is overlooked, this could not have been more perfect!

This was our first stop to our 2 week honeymoon and it was amazing! Oia does not offer many hotels with privacy but this one was the best for that. We had a hot tub outside over looking the caldera. There is room cleaning twice a day and hot tub was cleaned everyday as well. Hotel is in a good spot for excursion pick ups as well as late night options since it's the closest to the restaurant that's open the latest. The best part is the breakfast which is served at your desired time and what you want. It was usually pretty heavy that we only ate twice a day.

Special service, off the beaten path at the end of town of oia, some other hotels not as private.
Comfortable jacuzzi in every room, adjust the temperature to what you like. The jacuzzi cleaner is the best, oh he will also pick you up from airport/ferry very sweet cute guy!!
Good value, what else??? Oh the view! Hope to return!
Thank you

Living in Dubai we do look for a big wow factor as we have so many amazing hotels.

However the Ambition suites was a WOW! There are 4 suites at Ambition, built into the side of the Caldera and the view from these suites is absolutely stunning.... The suite itself is large with everything you would need along with the large outdoor area and hot tub jaccuzzi to top it off! Iveta was super helpful before we arrived and during our stay gave us an exceptional welcome and one of the best holidays ever, thank you for an exceptional holiday!

Ervetta was absolutely wonderful in helping us with restaurants and excursions. The view can not be beat! Everyone was so accommodating. Ambition Suites is on the Caldera side so the views are amazing; also the steps to the main strip Oia wasn’t too bad. Will stay again I hope!!
